Logitech's washable keyboard may cost $39.99

BANGALORE, INDIA:  Logitech  has unveiled the Washable Keyboard K310.

The Logitech Washable Keyboard K310 can be hand washed time and time again, and can be submerged (with the exception of the USB cable) in up to 11 inches of water.

Convenient drainage holes at the back of the keyboard allow for easy drying while key characters are laser printed and UV coated to help ensure the letters don't fade in the wash, according to Logitech website.

"We've all experienced that moment of distraction – followed by panic, when a cup of

coffee or a soda spills all over your keyboard," says Sophie Le Guen, senior director of mice and keyboards at Logitech.

"Because life and its messes will happen, regardless of how careful you are, Logitech designed the Logitech Washable Keyboard K310 to look and function like new, even over time."

It comes complete with F-keys and a number pad, and is compatible with Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7.

To make life even easier, this keyboard requires no software for setup, simply pull the device straight out of the box, plug it in and type away.

The Logitech Washable Keyboard K310 is expected to be available in the US and Europe in few months at a suggested retail price of $39.99.
